CLINIC:  If You Could Go Back: Modeling the Lehigh & New England’s Catasauqua Branch
DAY:  Friday TIME 7:30–8:30pm

DESCRIPTION:  This presentation will explore the history of this unique L&NE branch line which served as major source of traffic for the railroad until its 1961 demise, and covers Todd’s decade-long quest to pay tribute to it via his HO-scale layout.  Along the way, we’ll look at lessons from the layout’s design and construction, and share some tips and tricks for creating scenery and scratch-built structures.

 

About the Clinician...

     Originally from Lancaster, PA, Todd lives in Falls Church, VA.  He’s a fan of all of the anthracite lines, especially the cement haulers, and models the Lehigh & New England Railroad’s Catasauqua Branch and its connections circa the mid-1950s in HO scale.
